				The Glasgow Haskell Compiler is a state-of-the-art, open source, compiler and
				interactive environment for the functional language Haskell. Highlights:

				* Supports the entire Haskell 2010 language plus a wide variety of
				extensions.
				* Has particularly good support for concurrency and parallelism, including
				support for Software Transactional Memory (STM).
				* Generates fast code, particularly for concurrent programs.
				* Works on several platforms including FreeBSD, Windows, Mac, Linux, most
				varieties of Unix, and several different processor architectures.
				* Has extensive optimisation capabilities, including inter-module optimisation.
				* Compiles Haskell code either directly to native code or using LLVM as a
				back-end. It can also generate C code as an intermediate target for porting
				to new platforms. The interactive environment compiles Haskell to bytecode,
				and supports execution of mixed bytecode/compiled programs.
				* Profiling is supported, both by time/allocation and various kinds of heap
				profiling.
				* Comes with several libraries, and thousands more are available on Hackage.
